A solo violin sample from edirol orchestral was used a base, using pitch bend and then layering against pitch shifted copies of the original. Then lots and lots and lots of reverb and maybe other effects. I spent way too long on this for no certain outcome but actually it was perfect for the radio drama i was theoretically producing it for.
Evolving drone pad, i created this with a sequenced bellpad,that i sampled from the kawai k4r, pitched at multiple octaves some reversed some with reverb or delay, mixed with a water stream & windchimes stretched out 10x.
Dark growling drone sound i made on a my behringer model d analog synthesizer, recorded with effects in ableton live. Some processing was done later in adobe audition to finalize it.
